Pertaining to the Liturgy of Saint James, is that “James” referring to James the Just, Bishop of Jerusalem? Excuse my ignorance I get the “James’s” confused.

That it was actually composed by St. James the Less, as first Bishop of Jerusalem, is not now believed by any one; but two forms in it show that it was originally used as local rite of the city of Jerusalem.Pertaining to the Liturgy of Saint James, is that “James” referring to James the Just, Bishop of Jerusalem?

The St. James’s Rite, then, is an a adaptation of the other (not necessarily of the very one we have in the Apostolic Constitutions, but of the old Syrian rite, of which the Apostolic Constitutions give us one version) made for local use at Jerusalem%between%. Then it spread throughout the patriarchate.

While it is said to be the Liturgy of St. James of Jerusalem, also known as St. James the Just, and St. James the Brother of the Lord. It was codified somewhat later (estimates range from 100 to 500 AD), and shows some 4th century influences.Pertaining to the Liturgy of Saint James, is that “James” referring to James the Just, Bishop of Jerusalem?

Who codified and promulgated the codification is unknown, but St. Cyril of Jerusalem is sometimes indicated; if so, the codification would have been circa 370. It is a very close match to the liturgy in the Apostolic Constitutions, as well.
It is the foundational liturgy of the Syrian rites, and may be the prototype from which the Roman, Coptic, and Byzantine liturgies grew. If it isn’t, then it shares close descent from the prototype liturgy shared by them.
